“Came for their 8th anniversary party and this place is a vibe! Great atmosphere and music the entire night. I was served by a very lovely bartender named Sefra. She continuously checked on us throughout the night, and her amazing energy added to the event. Would definitely consider renting this place for events.“

“Had an absolutely wonderful experience at Mushkaki! The food was perfectly cooked flavorful, fresh, and beautifully presented. Every dish we ordered felt like it was made with real care and attention to detail.

A special mention to Salma, whose service truly stood out. She was incredibly polite, attentive, and made sure everything was just right from start to finish. Her friendly attitude added such a welcoming touch to the whole experience.

Highly recommend Mushkaki for anyone looking for great food, warm service, and a relaxing atmosphere. I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“The food was so good that I had to j hold myself back from eating more so I could share it with my folks after. They gave me more soup so that my folks could get the real experience. They're was another family there who had two kids. They put on kids shows so that they could be entertained and also held their baby while they ate and chatted. Would definitely recommend. The place is along the sorry end of the building plaza and has limited seating but 100% worth it.“

“nice and clean good food good service“

“Absolutely, we received five-star services, I attended my niece's wedding over the weekend, the Star banquet team's positive energy was amazing, food was great and served with style, well trained team, thank you Mohamed Ward, Yusuf Abdi, and Obama, they owned the stage.“

“Absolutely delicious!
The Nigerian food around!
We ordered the Egusi, Efo Riro, Ayamase, and Asun, and every dish was packed with authentic flavor and made with high quality meats and ingredients. We were not disappointed!

When I called to place our order, Bebe was incredibly helpful, patient, and kind as she guided me through our modifications. That’s what I call amazing customer service.

This place is truly a hidden gem, if you haven’t tried it yet, you’re missing out!“

“Stopped by Afro Continental Ghanaian Restaurant for dinner with a friend and really enjoyed the food. I had the waakye and goat suya; both were delicious and well-seasoned. The prices were quite affordable and definitely competitive compared to other similar spots in the area.

My friend got the jollof rice with meat and she enjoyed her dish as well.

As for the service…it’s about what you’d expect from a typical African restaurant. Nothing extraordinary, but it got the job done. At the end of the day, the food made it worth it. We’d definitely come back but only for takeout.“

“My gf Layal and I tried this Ghanan Restaurant on Islington last night that was a hidden gem near our tattoo place.
We tried the Fu-Fuo(potato dumpling),Jollof Rice(chicken&egg) served with mixed spinach.
Owner was very friendly and the spice was just right and still have left overs for today.
We are happy we tried this place. Next time fish dish“

“Fast service great buffalo wings 👌“

“My family and I have been loyal customers of Hamdi’s for years — first in Rexdale and now at their new location in Ridgeway Plaza. It’s one of those rare places where the food, hospitality, and value all come together perfectly.

Our go-to dishes are the roasted goat and fried chicken, both served with a generous plate of rice, spaghetti, lentil soup, salad, and fresh mango juice. Every bite reminds us why we keep coming back — the flavours are rich and comforting.

The portion sizes are generous and the prices are unbeatable. In a plaza competing mostly with South Asian and Arab restaurants, Hamdi’s stands out as a must-try spot for anyone looking to experience truly delicious Somali food. They’ve been feeding the community with love and flavour for years.“

“Chef Tee is very hospitable and kind. I got the Agege burger with fries and a soft drink. And the agege brioche they used for the burger is so good! A must try. Kitchen is clean, ingredients are fresh and dining area and bathroom are clean. A Greta atmosphere. Please go support your local business! 10/10 highly recommend!“

“food is good no complain“

“Amazing place to check out. The food is top and well priced - you won't be leaving this place hungry or disappointed. The Jollof with chicken is a big recommendation. Service is very friendly and accommodating. Definitely worth to come back.“

“I’ve been here before multiple times and when I say this place owes me
nothing. I just celebrated my birthday here and me and my party had an amazing time. The music was great, the vibes were through the roof, the service was amazing and the FOOD!!! CHEF’s KISS oh my!! (I promise this isn’t a fake review) but yea that Alfredo and suya really did something to meee. The samosa was very well seasoned and the perfect amount of flaky, the drinks very well mixed and the staff is very attentive and kind. Thank you again for having me and you’ll be seeing me soon!!!“

“one of the best place to eat our traditional food in Toronto. Jellof rice, pepper snails and pepper goat meat was exquisitely delicious 😍❤💋💋“

“I'm a Caribbean girl, I can't remember if I've ever had Nigerian food. However, I kept seeing pepper soup on my Pinterest and as an avid Nigerian movie fan I was motivated to try it. I had no clue what to expect but It looked so good online I had to find it . I searched a Nigerian restaurant near me and found this hidden gem and guess what ? They had pepper soup with assorted meat. Anyways I ordered some pepper soup and let me tell you that I am in loveeeeeeeeee!! Don't get me wrong it's so spicy and I couldn't finish it in a day but I loved every bit of it. I haven't tried the other dishes but I'll recommend the pepper soup over and over again.“

“Ah!!! The food in this place slaps!!!

As in, the egusi soup was on point. The jollof rice was legendary.

It's in an Agbado like place in Mississauga o ( I don't know why naija food has to be in those kinds of bukkaish experience places) but you will want to buy their food. Order online if you must but trust that the taste experience is awesome.

The ladies where nice and kind. My overall experience was excellent ignoring location.“

“Guys, it is the best restaurant in Toronto in terms of food quality.. but the place is shameful.. and it is not suitable for families.. the restaurant has a very old system and service.. it has nothing to do with technology and the modern style of restaurants.. but in terms of food quality and price it is the best without a competitor..“

“Excellent customer service. Suya taste delicious. I will surely be back. Got extra onion at no charge, even though red onion is so expensive these days. See you soon.“

“Best Cameroonian restaurant in GTA area! The sfeer is relaxed reception is amazing and the food is delicious and presentation is top-notch! Cozy place to relax with friends and colleagues.“

“Absolutely amazing food. Served very hot and fresh! They were extremely polite and kind at the restaurant and took the time to explain options that I can order. Food was cooked fresh and was so fantastic. I would recommend this to all, great portion size and affordable .
Thank you for a great experience.“

“It was an incredible experience.They made my six-day stay in Toronto, Canada truly unforgettable. food was exceptional, especially efo riro vegetables,pounded yam and jollof rice.Good customer service“

“Regalz Kitchen & Bar is famous for cozy atmosphere and delicious food. Only who has visited the place recently is well known for its unique service.“

“Suya Bistro Vaughan is a hidden gem! Their jollof rice is rich, smoky, and full of authentic flavor—one of the best Nigerian jollof rice I’ve had. The customer service is just as impressive—warm, attentive, and truly welcoming. A must-visit for anyone who loves great food and excellent hospitality!“

“I stumbled on Inside Lagos one evening after a really long day. I was just driving around to clear my head when I saw the name Inside Lagos at Keeles by Finch and something told me to stop. A kind and pleasant lady, who I later found out owns the place, welcomed me with such good customer care and warmth that I immediately felt at ease.

I ordered amala with dry fish and ponmo, and honestly, it reminded me of home. The jollof rice had that smoky Nigerian taste I’ve missed for years, and the suya was just right, spicy and flavorful. The food was fresh, the place was neat, and there was this homely atmosphere that made me relax like I was back in Nigeria.

Since that day, I just keep going back. Not only because it’s fancy, but because it feels real- the food, the people, the vibe. This is the best and most tasty Nigerian food I have tasted here in a restaurant.“

“The food here is amazing. I've never had issues with quality or quantity. However, the lighting in the restaurant could be better. I understand that the intention might be to create a relaxing environment, but I think it could be a little brighter. If you're not dining in, it won't be an issue, though.

Parking: Parking is sufficient.“
